The period of time between Christmas and New Year. When National Holidays and unusual working patterns work make it difficult to keep track of the exact day, whilst looking forward to further celebrations as New Year's Eve approaches.
I'm recovering from Christmas and looking forward to New Year, but at the moment I'm just stuck in this chrimbo limbo.

It's when you feel like you've got too much work to go to bed, but you are too tired to get anything done. So you just surf the net and procrastinate until you can't stay awake anymore.
Joe: Dude how did your 3000 word essay go?
Tom: Well I managed to get half of it done yesterday, but then I got stuck in sleepytime limbo and just stayed awake the whole night browsing through facebook...
Joe: that sucks bro

1. -noun.
The prolonged confinement of a would-be 'friend' on a social networking website to a 'friend request' page. Results from never denying or accepting the prospective friend's offer to become friends. Often appears when a member has forgotten the prospective friend from some previous experience, or a member has never met the prospective friend, resulting in a dilemma for the member, who does not want to accept the friend, but wants to avoid hurting the friend by rejecting them.
NOTE: 'Friend limbo' cannot be modified by a possessive pronoun; one cannot be 'stuck in his friend limbo' or 'be keeping many people in one's friend limbo.' Friend limbo is non-specific, like 'Davy Jones' Locker.' Just as one cannot be stuck in someone's Davy Jones' Locker, one cannot be stuck in someone's friend limbo.
2. -verb.
To put or leave someone in friend limbo.
Damn, Jebediah, don't you remember me? We were roommates three years ago, but you haven't 'friended' me - I'm still stuck in friend limbo!

A quicker, hipper version of, 'Make up your mind already!'
"I can't decide if I want to go out with you or not."
"Seriously, dude? Kill the Limbo."
"...Fine. I'll go out with your hotter older brother, instead."

1. Web pages from out of date, inactive or deleted websites that can still be found years later when performing a search on Google.
2. Webpages that can never be completely deleted from the internet.
"I saw a picture of you at your old job." "I haven't worked there in years!" "Well your picture still came up when I typed your name into Google." "It must be in Google limbo."

The electronic space between accepting and rejecting a facebook friendship. In facebook limbo, the user fails to accept or reject friend requests from would-be facebook friends from a variety of sources (e.g., random annoying classmates, despised work associates, ex-girlfriends, etc), because the user is uncertain if he or she will have to interact with these individuals in the future.

Jim: How about that new kid, Ryan. He's so cool.
Thom: I dunno man, he already tried to facebook me, wtf?
Jim: So?
Thom: So I'm leaving him in facebook limbo, I don't want him jo'ing to pictures of my drunk girlfriend...

Alex's Stalker Ex: Why didn't you add me to your friends on facebook? I friend requested you last week! I thought we were friends now! How come every day when I go through your whole list of friends I'm not on there?
Alex: Baby, it's okay, I just haven't had a chance to approve you.

Doing work, then deciding to procrastinate by do something else, then deciding to procrastinate that by doing something completely different. This keeps on going until you hit a stage where what you are doing makes no sense and isn't useful to you in anyway.
Dude 1: Hey how did the essay writing go?
Dude 2: Well at first it went well, then I decided I should probably revise for my exam first, then I thought maybe I should clean my room so I can revise in a clean environment. However while cleaning my room I got preoccupied with a spider I found under my bed. In the end I hit 'procrastination limbo' when I realized all I'm doing now is watching a spider trying to eat a piece of cheese I laid out for it.
